1. HR interview - standard stuff, 1 hour. 2. Technical interview with team leader and development manager 1 hour. Asked about my background, describe a system you developed and asked questions about it. Wanted me to describe how can you manage thread
2 professional interviews in the first you had to print an x and in the second interview you had to write the x and o game, then there is an HR interview
Classic interview - whiteboard + coding assignment. The atmosphere was really positive and coding assignment structure was more than fair and took around 2 hours to complete, with different levels on after the other.
